Virus filtration systems for biologics processing
Ensure efficient virus retention in biopharmaceutical production by integrating modular filter holders and single-use flow paths designed for scalability and precise control.
Filters and Retains Viruses in Biopharmaceutical Products
The Viresolve®Pro Virus Filtration System with Magnus Holders from the Viresolve® line provides a robust solution for biopharmaceutical manufacturers seeking reliable viral clearance. It uses specialized virus filter holders and modular filter systems ideal for monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), therapeutic proteins, and mRNA-based vaccines production. The system effectively integrates prefiltration and virus retention processes to ensure consistent viral safety across various production scales, from pilot to large-scale operations. Featuring a single-use flow path design, it minimizes risk of contamination while simplifying changeovers. This system supports scalable operations and adapts to evolving process requirements, making it indispensable in modern biopharma manufacturing. Designed to comply with industry standards, it facilitates both manual and modular operation modes, ensuring versatility in cleaning and maintenance.
